Senior Night
Last Friday, Day School celebrated our senior athletes between the JV and Varsity basketball games. The pom poms also gave their last performance of the season, and the fourth graders were recognized.  





Parent Resources
As we all process the recent tragedy in Florida, we have had some parents ask for resources for how to talk with their kids.  The faculty and staff have read a Harvard Graduate School of Education article ( "When Bad Things Happen") with "tips for parents and educators on talking to kids about the unthinkable...events in life." ISACS also recommends an  article put out by The National Child Traumatic Stress Network about "Talking to Children about the Shooting"

Reminder: Grades 8-10 will be ISTEP testing next week.  Please refrain from schedulingoutside appointments during school hours the week of March 5-8.  It is important that students arrive on time as they will not be admitted to the testing session once it has started.
